Dear Johnny Midnight, Dear Johnny Cool
I'm consulting the cards after rising my room
I know I should leave but I don't have the shoes or the courage

What do see when the shades are removed
I know as well as you start the next tune
Eclipses and tea cups, we're drinking the moon til you've landed

Removing the clouds and we all can go through
God is alive and the worlds still in tune
Don't change that dial, here is another word from one of our sponsors

Say there my friends, are you tired of the pain
Is the weight of your ego, the knife in your veins
Collecting the dimes til you choked on the chains of your exits

Birds of Wyoming and flies still are mourning
The loss of a withering spring
Home of the crown with the season approaching
Some other season reignites[?]

Went to arrive and the bells have been ringing
Nature it yawns at the sounds of you singing
All has been gone but yet we pretend to be dreaming

Not long ago I was caught in your lineup
Gave your desire, sounded your mind
Pulling me through like some thread in the eye of a needle
I'm awaiting my turn in a long train of thought
Here in the back nearly second to last
Tempted to leave but I know once I do i'll start over

And yes I can say that I quit my whole life
Erasing my name at the top of the page
Moving my pen when the audience got too acquainted

I was tired, I was weak, and my jaw nearly broke
As I exited north, the radio spoke
All is not lost even if you're without a direction

Go west, go west, 1972
The sun hasn't set, the stars they are few
Just stick around til the light pushes into the darkness

Just stick around til the light pushes into the darkness
Just stick around til the light pushes into the darkness
Just stick around til the light pushes into the darkness
Just stick around til the light pushes into the darkness
Just stick around til the light pushes into the darkness
Just stick around til the light pushes into the darkness
